Xanthelasma palpebrarum 是一種富含膽固醇的軟沉積物,常於眼瞼內角形成淡黃色的腫塊或斑塊。此病為良性,通常不會造成重大健康風險。約有一半的成年患者血脂異常。對於年輕人,尤其是兒童,出現 Xanthelasma 可能提示遺傳性脂質代謝異常。Xanthelasma 的治療多基於美容考量,因為從醫療角度一般不需治療。 Xanthelasma palpebrarum is primarily characterized by soft, lipid-rich deposits, especially cholesterol, manifesting as semisolid, yellowish papules or plaques. These deposits are typically found on the inner aspect of the eyes and are most commonly located along the corners of the upper and lower eyelids. Xanthelasma palpebrarum is a benign lesion and does not pose significant health risks. Approximately 50% of adult patients with xanthelasma have abnormal lipid levels. In younger individuals, particularly children, the presence of xanthelasma should prompt consideration of an underlying inherited dyslipidemia. Although xanthelasma treatment is typically not medically necessary, some patients may seek therapy for cosmetic reasons.
